What Is Yoga Therapy?

Excerpted from the International Association for Yoga Therapists (IAYT), "Yoga therapy is that facet of the ancient science of Yoga that focuses on health and wellness at all levels of the person: physical, psychological, and spiritual. Yoga therapy focuses on the path of Yoga as a healing journey that brings balance to the body and mind through an experiential understanding of the primary intention of Yoga: awakening of Spirit, our essential nature."--Joseph Le Page, M.A.

 

Yoga therapy strives to heal dis-ease by cleansing and optimizing the physiological systems, opening up energy blockages, transforming constricting thoughts and eliminating the “inner-judge.” This deepens our intuition thereby eliminating stress and ultimately recognizing our true nature. Yoga therapy brings balance to all our levels of being, thus providing lasting healing.
